Always be alert to changing terrain conditions when operating this vehicle. • Never operate on excessively rough, slippery, or loose terrain. • Always follow proper procedures for turning as described in this manual. Practice turning at slow speeds before attempting to turn at faster speeds. Do not turn at excessive speed. • Always have the vehicle checked by an authorized Arctic Cat dealer if it has been involved in an accident. • Never operate on hills too steep for your abilities. Practice on smaller hills before attempting larger hills. • Always follow proper procedures for climbing hills as described in this manual. Check the terrain carefully before you start up any hill. Never climb hills with slippery or loose surfaces. Never depress the accelerator suddenly or make gear changes while moving. Never go over the top of any hill at high speed. • Always follow proper procedures for going down hills and for braking on hills as described in this manual. Check the terrain carefully before you start down any hill. Never go down a hill at high speed. Avoid going down a hill at an angle which would cause the vehicle to lean sharply to one side. Go straight down the hill where possible. • Always be careful when you decide to climb or descend a hill and never turn on a hill. Drive straight up or down inclines and not across them. If you must cross the side of a hill, drive slowly and stop or turn downhill if you feel the vehicle may tip. • Always use proper procedures if you stall or roll backward when climbing a hill. To avoid stalling, maintain a steady speed when climbing a hill. If you stall or roll backwards, follow the special procedure for braking described in this manual. • Always check for obstacles before operating in a new area. Never attempt to operate over large obstacles, such as large rocks or fallen trees. Always follow proper procedures when operating over obstacles as described in this manual. • Always be careful of skidding or sliding. On slippery surfaces, such as ice, go slowly and be very cautious in order to reduce the chance of skidding or sliding out of control. • Never operate this vehicle in fast flowing water or in water deeper than the floorboard. Remember that wet brakes may have reduced stopping capability. Test your brakes after leaving water. If necessary, apply them lightly several times to let friction dry out the pads. • Always be sure there are no obstacles or people behind you when you operate in reverse. When it is safe to proceed in reverse, go slowly. Avoid turning at sharp angles in reverse. • Always use the size and type of tires specified in this manual. Always maintain proper tire pressure as described in this manual. • Never improperly install or improperly use accessories on this vehicle. • Never exceed the stated load capacity for this vehicle.

Starting the Vehicle Always start with the vehicle on a flat, level surface. Carbon monoxide poisoning can kill you, so keep the vehicle outside while it’s running. Follow these steps to start it up:
CAUTION Always come to a complete stop before attempting to shift from one range to the other or into reverse or park. Always shift on level ground or apply the brakes.
1. Step into the vehicle and sit down; then fasten the operator seat belt and the passenger seat belt (if applicable) NOTE: The CVT is fully automatic and strap on your approved helmet and shifts as a function of engine and require your passenger to do the RPM. same (if applicable). Check that the 1. To select reverse gear from park, doors are secured and latched. move the shift lever rearward one position until the letter “R” is dis! WARNING played on the gauge. Falling from a moving vehicle could result in serious injury or death. Always fasten your seat belt securely and ensure the passenger seat belt is properly and securely fastened prior to operating or riding in this vehicle.
2. Shift into park. 3. Depress the brake pedal. 4. Turn the ignition switch clockwise to the START position; then when the engine starts, release to the RUN position. Do not increase engine RPM above idle.
CAUTION Do not run the starter motor for more than eight seconds per starting attempt. The starter motor may overheat causing severe starter motor damage. Allow 15 seconds between starting attempts to allow the starter motor to cool.
5. Let the engine warm up.
Shifting the Transmission This vehicle is equipped with a constant variable transmission (CVT) coupled to a dual-range transmission with reverse and park. To shift the transmission, follow these steps.
2. To select neutral from park, move the gear shift rearward two positions until the letter “N” is displayed on the gauge. 3. To select high range from park, move the shift lever rearward through reverse and neutral until the letter “H” is displayed on the gauge. 4. To select low range from high range, move the shift lever rearward one position until the letter “L” is displayed on the gauge.
NOTE: The high range is for normal driving with light loads. The low range is for carrying heavy loads or trailer towing. Compared to HIGH range, the LOW range position provides slower speed and greater torque to the wheels.
CAUTION Always shift into low range when operating on wet or uneven terrain or when towing or pushing heavy loads. Failure to follow this caution may result in premature drive belt failure or in damage to related drive system components.

! WARNING
! WARNING
Excessive repetitive use of the hydraulic brake for high speed stops will cause overheating of the brake fluid and premature brake pad wear which will result in an unexpected loss of brakes.
Use care in turns - turning the steering wheel too far or too fast can result in loss of control or a rollover. Excessive speed, driving aggressively, or making abrupt maneuvers, even on flat, open areas, can cause loss of control, tipping, or rollover. Uneven terrain, rough terrain, soft surfaces, slippery surfaces, and paved surfaces can also cause a loss of control or rollover in a turn. On loose or soft surfaces, allow yourself more time and distance to turn and slow down.
Parking
! WARNING Use only Arctic Cat approved brake fluid. Never substitute or mix different types or grades of brake fluid. Brake loss can result. Check brake fluid level and pad wear before each use. Brake loss can result in serious injury or death.
Parking involves following the previous rules for braking; then: 1. After the vehicle stops, shift into park; then turn off the ignition. 2. If you have to park on a hill, block the wheels on the downhill side.
Basic Turns Steering effort is at its lowest in two-wheel drive (2WD). Greater effort is needed when in four-wheel drive (4WD). The greatest effort is needed when in fourwheel drive and the differential is locked.
Driving Uphill Always drive straight up the hill and always avoid hills steeper than 15°. 1. Keep both hands on the wheel. 2. Prior to starting the climb, shift into low range, select four-wheel drive for traction, and gradually press the accelerator; then maintain a constant speed.
! WARNING Do not attempt to turn around on a hill.

NOTE: Avoid sudden while backing up.
Crossing obstacles can be hazardous. There is always the possibility of the vehicle tipping. If you cannot go around an obstacle, follow these guidelines:
1. Back up slowly. It’s hard to see behind you. braking
2. If possible, it is advisable to have someone “spotting” for you while backing up.
1. Stop the vehicle and shift into park. Go out to inspect the obstacle thoroughly from both your approach side and the exit side. If you believe you can cross the obstacle safely, select four-wheel drive (4WD) and shift into low range.
3. If you are unsure of what is behind the vehicle, place the transmission in park and get out and inspect the area behind.
NOTE: Selecting the LOCK position on the differential lock control may be beneficial; however, steering effort will be increased.
Never activate the override while the throttle is open as a loss of control may result. Use caution when using the override switch as reverse speed can greatly increase.
! WARNING
2. Approach the obstacle as close as possible to 90° to minimize vehicle Skidding or Sliding tipping. If you lose control after hitting sand, ice, 3. Keep speed slow enough to maintain mud, or water, follow these guidelines: control but fast enough to maintain momentum.
1. Turn the steering wheel into the direction of the slide.
4. Use only enough power to cross the obstacle but still give yourself plenty of time to react to changes in conditions. Crawl over the obstacle.
2. Keep your foot off the brake until you’re out of the skid. 3. Stop and shift into four-wheel drive.

Trailering and Towing
WT029B
This vehicle is equipped with a framemounted receiver for a standard 5.1 cm (2 in.) receiver hitch. The standard receiver hitch must be purchased separately.
! WARNING Make sure that the load in the trailer is properly secured and will not shift while moving. Also, do not overload the trailer.
When loading a trailer properly, two items are critical: Gross Trailer Weight (the weight of the trailer plus cargo) and Trailer Tongue Weight.
! WARNING Driving this vehicle without extra caution when towing a trailer will be hazardous. Trailer towing can affect the handling and braking of the vehicle. Tow only at low speeds and never exceed 10 mph. Avoid sudden accelerations and stopping of the vehicle. Do not make quick maneuvers. Avoid uneven surfaces and do not tow on hills.
! WARNING Never tow people in or on any device except when towing a disabled vehicle with operable brakes and steering or on a trailer designed for passengers that has a rigid tow bar.
Transporting When transporting, the vehicle must be in its normal operating position (on all four wheels) and the following procedure must be used. 1. Place the transmission in park. 2. Secure the vehicle with load rated hold-down straps.
! WARNING Never exceed any of the vehicle weight restrictions.
Trailer Tongue Weight is the downward force exerted on the hitch by the trailer coupler when the trailer is fully loaded and the coupler is at its normal towing height. Refer to the Load Capacity Ratings Chart for tongue weight information.
WT033A
Always maintain a slow speed when trailering and towing and avoid sudden accelerations, quick maneuvers, and sudden stops. Braking distance will be affected when towing a trailer. When towing a trailer, always maintain slow speed and allow more stopping distance than when not towing a trailer.
WT034A
32
NOTE: Suitable hold-down straps are available from your Arctic Cat dealer. Ordinary rope is not recommended because it can stretch under load.
CAUTION If using additional hold-down straps in any other areas, care must be taken not to damage the vehicle.
Gasoline-Oil-Lubricant Filling Gas Tank
! WARNING Always fill the gas tank in a well-ventilated area. Never add gasoline to the gas tank near any open flames or with the engine running or hot. DO NOT SMOKE while filling the gas tank.
Since gasoline expands as its temperature increases, the gas tank must be filled to its rated capacity only. Expansion room must be maintained in the tank particularly if the tank is filled with cold gasoline and then moved to a warm area.
When using ethanol blended gasoline, it is not necessary to add a gasoline antifreeze since ethanol will prevent the accumulation of moisture in the fuel system.
CAUTION Do not use white gas. Only Arctic Cat approved gasoline additives should be used.
Recommended Engine/ Transmission Oil
CAUTION Any oil used in place of the recommended oil could cause serious engine damage. Do not use oils which contain graphite or molybdenum additives. These oils can adversely affect clutch operation. Also, not recommended are racing, vegetable, non-detergent, and castor-based oils.
The recommended oil to use is Arctic Cat ACX All Weather synthetic engine oil, which has been specifically formulated for use in this Arctic Cat engine. Although Arctic Cat ACX All Weather synthetic engine oil is the only oil recommended for Allow the engine to cool before filling the use in this engine, use of any API certified gas tank.

Arctic Cat warrants only the products it assembles and/or sells and does not warrant that other products will function properly when used with an Arctic Cat ROV or will not damage the ROV. Arctic Cat does not assume any liability for incidental or consequential damages. Arctic Cat will repair or replace, at its option, free of charge (including any related labor charges), any parts that are found to be warrantable in material or workmanship. This repair work MUST be done by an authorized Arctic Cat dealer. No transportation charges, rental charges, or inconvenience costs will be paid by Arctic Cat. The warranty is validated upon examination of said parts by Arctic Cat or an authorized Arctic Cat dealer. Arctic Cat reserves the right to inspect such parts at its factory for final determination if warranty should apply. The warranty periods are as follows: 1. Six months from the date of sale - for an Arctic Cat ROV purchased by an individual. 2. Ninety days from date of sale - for an Arctic Cat ROV purchased by a business (including rental operations (non-transferable)). 3. Thirty days from date of sale of ROV on Arctic Cat supplied batteries. Exclusions to this warranty include normal wear, abuse, or corrosion and the following parts and items: Tires Drive/Driven Clutch Wear Parts Oil Filter Drive Belt Air Filter Torn or Punctured Upholstery Brake Pads Cracks or Gouges in Body Panels Light Bulbs Spark Plug(s) CV Boots NOTE: Vehicles that are factory equipped with Fox shocks and experience a shock failure within the factory warranty period (1 year) must not be tampered with. Only the “Schrader” (air pressure) valve is serviceable during the warranty period. Failures (air leaks) must be confirmed by following the test procedure as shown in the service manual. Any other tampering with the shock will void Fox warranty.
The following will VOID Arctic Cat’s warranty: 1. Failure to perform the proper break-in procedure and all related maintenance, storage procedures (if stored for extended periods), and/or service as recommended in the Operator’s Manual. 2. Repairs and/or adjustments by anyone other than an authorized Arctic Cat ROV dealer. 3. Use of improper gasoline, lubricating oils, or spark plug(s). 4. An accident or subjecting the ROV to misuse, abuse, or negligent operation. 5. Any modification, addition, or removal of parts unless instructed to do so by Arctic Cat. 6. Use of the ROV in any way for racing purposes. 7. Removal of the engine for use in another vehicle. 8. Removal or mutilation of the Vehicle Identification Number or Engine Serial Number. 9. Use of parts not sold or approved by Arctic Cat. 10. Damage due to improper transportation. Arctic Cat shall not be responsible for and this limited warranty excludes recovery of economic, punitive, consequential and incidental damages, lost profits, and loss of use. Some states or provinces do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation may not apply to you. Arctic Cat’s aggregate liability may not exceed the price of the product. The law of the State of Minnesota shall apply to all claims or disputes, exclusive of its conflicts of law provisions.
IMPLIED WARRANTY EXCLUSION FOR PURCHASE BY A BUSINESS To the fullest extent permitted by law, Arctic Cat excludes and disclaims all implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose if the ROV is purchased by a business and not by an individual consumer. If you are not satisfied with warranty service or repairs, you should contact Arctic Cat at (U.S.) 1-218-6819851 or (Canada) 1-204-982-1656.

Warranty Procedure/Owner Responsibility At the time of sale, an ATV Rider Training Certificate and Owner Registration form is to be completed by the selling dealer and consumer. The receipt of the form by Arctic Cat is a condition precedent to warranty coverage. It is the selling dealer’s responsibility to retain and/or submit appropriate copies of the form to the appropriate place(s) to initiate warranty coverage. The dealer will furnish to the consumer a signed copy of the form which must be presented to the dealer when requesting warranty service. The registration form is the consumer’s proof of ownership and warranty eligibility. The form is used by the dealer to validate the warranty claim. Retain your copy of the form and keep it in a safe place. When warranty repair is suspected, the ROV should be taken to the selling dealer, who has the primary responsibility to perform warranty repairs. Subject to the limitations set forth in the Limited Warranty, in the event the selling dealer has ceased to do business, you have moved, or you are in a location away from your selling dealer, warranty may be performed by any authorized Arctic Cat dealer. The authorized Arctic Cat ATV dealer will examine the ROV or part to determine if, in his opinion, a warrantable condition exists. If a warrantable condition appears to exist, the dealer will repair or replace, at Arctic Cat’s option, free of charge, including any related labor costs, all parts that are found to be warrantable and any other parts which the warrantable part caused to be damaged. You, the owner, will then be asked to sign a warranty form to ensure Arctic Cat that the warranty work was actually performed. It is the owner’s responsibility to maintain and service the ROV in accordance with Arctic Cat’s recommendations in the Operator’s Manual. To protect yourself and your ROV, follow all safety and service tips. Arctic Cat will NOT warrant repairs required as a result of not performing standard operator maintenance, storage procedures, and service as outlined in the Operator’s Manual. Should you have any questions concerning the warranty, contact an authorized Arctic Cat ROV dealer.
